  • Abstract
    This paper presents a measurement setup and an assembly technique suitable for characterization of power semiconductor devices under very high temperature conditions exceeding 500 °C. An important application of this is the experimental investigation of wide bandgap semiconductors. Measurement results are shown for a 1200V SiC MOSFET and a 650V depletion mode GaN HEMT.
